C. S. Forester je bio pseudonim koji je koristio britanski književnik, čije je pravo ime bilo Cecil Louis Troughton Smith (27. august 1899 - 2. april 1966), a koji je najpoznatiji po popularnim historijsko-pustolovnim romanima temom najčešće vezanim uz pomorsko ratovanje. Među njima se najviše ističe serija o Horatiju Hornbloweru, koja je kasnije uticala na brojne pisce, kako historijskog, tako i science fiction žanra. Neki od Foresterovih romana su poslužili i kao predložak za poznate hollywoodske filmove, među kojima se posebno ističe The African Queen (Afrička kraljica).
